Highlights
"Contacted James when a fault with downstairs sockets occurred. Date for visit was arranged and James arrived on time and began the investigation to identify the cause of the fault. The nature of the fault required a 2nd visit to fully rectify the issue a few days later. At all times during the fault finding James kept us informed of what he was doing and why, and discussed with us the options available to resolve the issue safely."
"Thank you so much for yours and James hard work in our extension. From initial contact, coming out to measure for a quote to completing the first fix was all within 1 week which was amazing! You've been really approachable and flexible and able to come around other jobs at short notice too. Highly recommend to others."
"We found James very helpful. He is a concentrated and skilful electrician and we will be asked Ng for his help again in the future."

Smart checks
Before you hire an electrician
In England and Wales, notifiable electrical work (new circuits, a consumer unit, anything in a bathroom or kitchen) must by law be signed off under Part P of the Building Regulations — confirm they will handle that.
Prefer an electrician registered with a government-approved competent-person scheme (NICEIC, NAPIT or ELECSA) so they can self-certify the work meets the wiring regulations.
Insist on the Electrical Installation Certificate (or Minor Works Certificate) when the job is done — it is your proof the work is safe and compliant, and you will need it if you ever sell.
Ask to see a portfolio of completed work like yours, plus recent references you can contact.
Check the credentials and registrations that matter for this work — and that they are current.
